To start

Nick He was a lovely man I could tell he was very involved in the conversation He wasn't as much on the menu as I was - it was half of my motivation.I had paneer tikka and prawn curry.

Peter He was smart and thoughtful, able to get his bearings but also a good listener. I could be her father – he's younger than my daughters – but I can't say that makes a difference. The food was also very good.
